Publisher Description

For the reader seeking spiritual guidance, this introduction to a regular programme of daily meditation aims to create a oneness with God and an understanding of an individual's place in the world. Goldsmith is not concerned with theory or theology, but with the need for prayer. His starting point is the universal inner conviction of humanity - that man is not alone in the universe, that there must be some higher force. Adaptable to personal needs and situations, this practical guide aims to release humanity to its God-given birthright - freedom from materialism, from small and unworthy ends and from all forms of self-seeking. “The Art of Meditation” features careful instructions, illustrative examples, and specially written meditations.

His books, including ... ”The Art of Meditation“ are known and cherished all over the world and source of inspiration and help to millions.”— “Spiritual Frontiers”
